Alison Gow, editor the Daily Post, said: “This is a really exciting development for the Daily Post; it gives readers choice and convenience, and complements what we do in print, on dailypost.co.uk and on mobile brilliantly.”

Alan Edmunds, editor of the Western Mail, the national newspaper of Wales, said: “This is an important development for our readers and advertisers.

“I am sure it will be welcomed by all who care passionately that the big Welsh national issues are covered extensively in the media on all available platforms. It is crucial that we engage our growing digital audience in new ways like this.”

The e-editions of the Daily Post, Western Mail, and South Wales Echo will each cost £7.99 a month, while Wales on Sunday will cost £3.99 a month.

The new products were being unveiled at the Senedd in Cardiff today at a launch event in association with Positif, Wales’ largest public affairs company. It was being hosted by David Melding AM, the National Assembly’s deputy presiding officer.
